Are they grey or red?
Are you physically on a street that TomTom knows? _________________ Lutz

If they are not red then the constellation doesn't permit a fix. Wait a few more minutes (preferably stationary) and it should sort itself out.
GPS is not a guaranteed service, you can have dropout for a variety of reasons. _________________ Lutz

Nope, nothing still all grey. I had 8 strong (max strength) signals but they were all still grey. Does this happen a lot? Is it like a blackout. |

I'm having this problem too (although there are no bars, but there weren't with TT3 either) The GPS program gets a 3D fix easily, but TT won't. i have a Navman jacket, with the serial driver installed, any ideas?
